Please offer feedback...
on the following consideration: Currently phases are untagged, relying on a numeric value to reference them. Of course, if you delete a phase then it shifts the phase order so you'd have to update all of your phase reference TIMes. So... is there ANY practical advantage to this over giving each phase a unique ID that could be referenced as an absolute value versus a number that can change? Things to consider: folks out there using the "phase+1" feature to advance through the list. In this system, there wouldn't be a "next" phase since there is no numeric ordering. However, even then it would seem like you could just set up IDs as "phase1", "phase2", etc, then reference them in sequence. Please share your thoughts. The absolute question at hand is: is there any reason NOT to make phases ID based?

i know when i did the flow chart puzzles.. i named each phase to its number value to keep track will -*test*-('")ing.. ie phase 1 to 16 for me personally text would be better, i have terrible number recall :oops: phases in TIMes called: closed animopen open animclose would stick in my memory more than 1 to 4 would at a later date

my thoughts exactly. I really can't think of a downside here... and I'm trying to week out as many archaic aspects of the engine as I can as long as I'm rebuilding the editor. Incidentally, this is sort of turning into Lassie 2.0 in scope.
